LOUIS PHILIPPE's CooLNEss.- Victor
Hugo, in his posthumous papers, gives a
convincing proof of Louis Philippe's
courage and ooolnees and of the Queen'-
likewise. He was riding with them in the
royal carriage upon one occasion, when an
attempt was made upon the Kings life.
When the first shot was fired, one of the
escort exclaimed, 1t is a sportsman let
ting off his guns A strange sportsman,
said | to the King, who fires off the re-
mainder of his powder at royaltyw As l
said this, the second shot was fred.
There exclaimed, it is an assassin ?
'Ohp replied the King, don't rush to
such hasty conclusions. Wait bit; the
thing will be explained He was calm,
serene, almost benevolent in the presence
of the man who had just shot at him. At
this moment the Queen touched me gently
on the shoulder, and as turned round she
showed me, without saying word. the gun
wad, which had fallen upon her knees
The Queen, whenever the carriage leans
on one side, is fearful of being thrown out
She makes the sign of the cross when II
thunders, and is afraid of fireworks: but
when the king Is shot at in her presence
she is quite calm"

Four STYLES OF CANAL BoATs.-It re-
quires intellect to build a canal boat, even
if it doesn't seem So A canal boat never
hurries, and people who think they know
everything believe that speed Is the only
thing that requires meditation. Canal
boats are built for whas they can hold.
There are four styles Of them-bullheads,
lake boats scows, steamboats, and consorts.
The bullhead is the everyday canal boat
which impedes the ferries. The laker Is a
size larger, and can stand sea. The scow
is an old acquaintance, but the steamboats,
and consorts are new. They have come to
revolutionize boating and Danish the mule.
There are 5000 canal boats in commission
on the State canals. They keep about
l,4O0 men and boys busy during the sea-
son, and pay them SIS to $50 month and
feed Boats travel as rule doubled up
that is, with their two teams pulling both
boats.-NeU York Sun.

The Ethics of HueeinC.

Hugging is comparatively modern in
stitution. Our ancestors never Rugged.
They calmly and demurely embraced.
There's big difference between hug and
an embrace. The hug is an earnest, quick
impetuous contraction of the muscles of
the arms and chest when the object to be
Rugged lies within the circle bounded by
the arms, while the chest is the goal or
final point of the hug. The warmth of the
hug is determined by the extent of the
muscular contraction. But the hug is not
as anatomists assert, terminated when the
object is brought in contact with the chest.
On the contrary, the sweeping in is but the
shell of the operation. The kernel is
reached when the space between the hug
ger and huggee is annihilated, and the
blade Of knife could scarcely be inserted
between both surfaces. This is, perhaps,
the most dangerous stage of the operation
A pound, nay, few ounces, Of extra press
ure, may result, if not in the displacement
of a rib, at least in the bursting of cor
set-string, with the almost inevitable de-
struction of bangs, montagues, waves.
pufS, and such like headgear. The release,
if not skillfully managed, is also attended
with danger, and should be as gradual as
the elementary pressure.
Expressions of anguish on the part of
the huggee may, as a rule, be regarded as
hypocritical, and should have no effect in
inducing the hugger to diminish the pres
sure. In like manner all danger signals
in regard to the arrival of third party
party on the scene should be investigated
by the party of the first part before re-
ceiving the attention the genuine arrival
of a parent or guardian might command
This may be done by quick glance over
the shoulder, and this lapid change of the
direction of the head may be accomplished
by little practice, without making any
relaxation of pressure necessary. If the
warning should prove to be without
foundation the deceit may be punished
by from two TO three pounds of additional
pressure, but so gradual that none of the
ornaments Of the person Rugged may suf-
fer. These little accidents ruffle the tenn
per and embitter the memory of the oper-
alton. The small affairs of the toilet are
not accomplished easily, and the female
mind is ruffied by the destruction of the
laborious embellishments Of the morning
hour.
The embrace is merely the throwing out
and partial contraction of the arms, with
out any special attention to an objective
point Near relatives should be emf
braced and not Rugged An especially
young and pretty aunt may be excepted,
and cases are known where an extremely
juvenile and good-looking step-mother has
been the occasion of the merging of the
embrace into the hug But this is rarely
done, particularly if the embracer is de-
pendent on the purse of the old man for
the necessities as well as the luxuries of
life To embrace mother-in-law is a hol-
low mockery, and should be attempted
only when some important object has to
be attained, and even then it is hardly ex-
c,lsable.-Inter- Ocean,

In the whole Hideous Catalogue

OF diseases, there were none which, pre-
vious to the discovery of Hostetter's Stom.
ach Bitters, offered more formidable resist
ance to the old. fashioned modes of treat
ment than the group of maladies which,
under the collective name of malarial dis
ease, afflicted entire communities that suf-
fered hopelessly. Chilis and fever, dumb
ague, ague cake and bilious reDittent were
once regarded as well nigh incurable.
Now it reioces the hearts of thousands
who reside in districts periodically subject
to the visitation of malaria, to feel certain
that in the Bitters they possess a certain
defense against the scourge, a sure means
of expellipg the poison from the system.
To the settler in the far West, the new emf
grant thither, and to travellers and tourists
by land and sea, the possession of this
pleasant safeguard is a guaranty of safety
from diseases which they might vainly
seek from any other source.

World Time.

We imagine, says Flammarion, that we
ascend very high into the past when we
behold the ancient pyramids still standing
on the plains of Egypt, the obelisks COW
cred with mysterious hieroglyphics, the
silent temples of Egypt, the antique pago-
das of India, the idols of Mexico and Peru,
the secular traditions of Asia and of our
Aryan ancestors, the instruments of the
age of stone, the arms cut from slick, the
arrows, the spears, the knives, the rasps
and the stone slings of our primitive bar
barism We hardly dare to speak of TO-
600 or 10000 years. But even if we
should admit 100000 years as the age of
our species so slowly progressive, what
would that be at the side of the apparently
fabulous accumulation of centuries
which have preceded us in the
history of the planet? Allowing
but 100000 years to the quarternary
age (the existing age), we see that the
tertiary period must have lasted 100000
years the secondary, 100000 years, the
primary nearly 100000, and the primor-
dial more than 100000 years What is
this history of life to the total history of
the globe, which has required 300,00O,000
years for the earth to solidify, while its
exterior temperature was descending to
2000? And how many millions shall we
need to add, to represent the time which
has elapsed between the temperature of
200' and that of ZOE, the probable maxi
mum Of organic life? The study of
worlds opens to us in the order of time
horizons as immense as those which open
to us in the order of space; it causes us
to think of eternity as We think of the

How shall we provide tools? you will
ask. How shall we fit up the workshop
Where shall we find teachers to instruct in
the various mechanical arts, if we have no
pecuniary assistance2 / reply: Every
little workman, once in love with his work,
buys his own tools, as soon as he Is able to
make use of them, or else he sets about per-
suading his parents to buy him. at one
time, file; at another; pair Of pincers;
at another, a hammer; and he will find
this an easier task than that Of the school
master who tries to persuade them to buy
grammar, an arithmetic, or geography.
And be assured that the boy, once in pos
session of his tools, will occupy his hands
and find work for himself Instead of buy
ing playthings, he will make them; and,
what is more, he will not break them to
pieces the next day, in order to see how
they are made inside. For the purpose
in question, the school-rooms at present ex-
listing are sufficient, if only slight modifi-
cations were introduced into the desks,
rendering them servicable for work as well
as for study, as they now are in many we'll
regulated girls schools. Again, the simple
use of the more common implements may
be taught by the common-school master,
without his pretending to he either ma
son or carpenter"
The Christian Union, referring to the
above, says: AS to the feasibility and pos
sibility of the cooperation of parents and
pupils, once the interest of the pupils is
aroused, there need be no doubt. Interest

pathy of the parents. Boys and girls
would soon learn to save their pennies in
order to own a tool from which they
might gain pleasure and profit There are
comparatively few teachers who cannot
at least after little practice-guide and
instruct class In the use of tools. When
this had been accomplished up TO the
point where the boys and girls wished fur

might be formed, whose dues would pay for
the services Of competent instructor for
two hours each week When parents are
reused to the Importance of this training,
the battle will be won, and means devised

The subject of the introduction of man

that is surrounded by many difficulties

are real, not imaginary. A writer in a re-
cent number of the Forum says: AZ am
advocating work-school, not a workshop.
To turn the primary school into train

into very grievous excess. Man

All over Germany exist what are called

spond in measure, to the endowment
plan of the American assurance companies.
The best known is the "Wihelmscasse,"
named after the Emperor, who is its pa
iron. At the birth of girl, the father
and mother insure her (kanfen sic Elm in)
such a Case for as much as they are able to
bestow every year on the future OF their new
born baby girl. The amount is paid annually.
The Case lays out the money in behalf of
the insured, at interest, chiefly in real es-
tate. In this way the money aecumulates,
and at eighteen, or her majority, the girl
is the possessor of snug little capital.
This will serve her to study any favored
profession, go to some good conservatory
or start in business; and last, but not least,
buy herstrousseau, if she has chance to fol
low woman's truest mission. Now, why
cannot well-to-do American women estab-
fish such way for providing for their less
fortunate sisters? What a blessed gift
